Compare Prison Tycoon: Under New Management prices across trusted key stores and find the best deal. Developed by Abylight Studios. Published by Ziggurat. Released on 12/10/2021. Available on PC, Xbox. Genres: Casual, Indie, Simulation, Strategy.

A prison management sim that lets you build, staff, and run your own facility, light on complexity, heavy on idle-game vibes.

I've seen enough tycoon games to spot when one's coasting on concept alone, and Prison Tycoon sits comfortably in that middle ground. You zone cells, hire guards and counselors, manage budgets, and watch prisoner rehabilitation numbers tick upward. The building interface is straightforward, no ruthless Dwarf Fortress learning curve, which makes it accessible for people who want strategy without spreadsheet anxiety. The feedback loop of expanding your facility and seeing operations improve is genuinely satisfying in short bursts. The catch: depth flattens after a few hours. Staff assignments boil down to checking boxes, prisoner needs feel more cosmetic than consequential, and the late game offers limited strategic pivots. It's more digital dollhouse than tycoon simulator. If you're after quick sessions of low-stakes management and don't mind minimal challenge or emergent complexity, this scratches that itch. Just don't expect the systems depth you'd get from Two Point Hospital or the Tycoon classics. Diego, Scout Team

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.

Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.

We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.
